Abstract

Job satisfaction among lecturers plays a crucial role in improving academic performance, organizational commitment, and the overall quality of higher education institutions. In recent years, issues related to leadership effectiveness and unfavorable working conditions have become prominent factors influencing lecturers’ job satisfaction, particularly in private universities. Therefore, understanding how leadership and work environment conditions contribute to lecturers’ job satisfaction is essential for institutional development. This study aims to examine the role of leadership and work environment conditions in enhancing lecturers’ job satisfaction. The research employed a quantitative approach with an associative research method to analyze the relationship between variables. The object of this study was the undergraduate Management Study Program at Universitas Pamulang. The research subjects consisted of lecturers with a minimum academic rank of Lektor and at least ten years of working experience. A total of 50 lecturers were selected as samples using a simple random sampling technique. Data were collected through the distribution of structured questionnaires with closed-ended questions measured using a Likert scale. The collected data were processed using SPSS version 27 and analyzed through multiple linear regression analysis. The results of the study indicate that leadership and work environment conditions simultaneously have a significant positive effect on lecturers’ job satisfaction. Partially, both leadership and work environment variables also show a positive and significant influence on job satisfaction. These findings suggest that effective leadership practices and supportive working conditions are key factors in improving lecturers’ job satisfaction.
